Common Questions
As an Athens homeowner, my outdoor outlets are corroded and some indoor ones feel loose. Can you help with these common electrical issues?
Absolutely. These are frequent concerns in our Athens-area homes due to humidity and aging wiring. Our licensed electricians can safely inspect, repair, or replace corroded outdoor outlets with weather-resistant models and secure any loose wiring inside your home. Addressing these issues not only improves safety but also ensures your electrical system is ready if you decide to add solar panels or an EV charger later on.
I'm interested in solar but worry my older electrical panel can't handle it. What's involved in an upgrade?
That's a smart and common consideration. Our process starts with a thorough electrical inspection of your home's current system. If your existing panel is outdated or at capacity, our team—led by a Master Electrician—can handle the entire upgrade or replacement. We ensure your new panel meets all local codes and is properly sized to support a new solar installation, future electric vehicle charging station, or other home energy improvements, all with a 25-year warranty on our workmanship.
What sets your company apart from other solar installers in Georgia?
Our foundation as a licensed electrical contracting company, led by a NABCEP-certified Master Electrician, is key. We don't just install panels; we design and build complete electrical systems for efficiency and safety. Founded in 2007, we have deep, long-term experience with Georgia's climate and regulations. We also believe in investing back into our community, donating a portion of profits to charitable efforts, because supporting our neighbors and environment goes hand-in-hand with our work.
